Donald Trump mispronounced Bhutan and Nepal as “Button and Nipple” in a White House meeting with intelligence officials.

He then went on to incorrectly identify both as being part of India, national security correspondent John Walcott told CNN’s Brooke Baldwin.

just missed the Feb thread title

Saudis did 9/11. Which iirc Trump was basically saying on the campaign trail but now something seems to have happened to change his tune. Its a mystery,..
